Core API is used by all clients that need to communicate with the PipeWire Daemon and provides the necessary structs to interface with the daemon.

Implementation API is primarily used by the PipeWire Daemon itself but also by the PipeWire Session Manager and modules/extensions that need to build objects in the graph.

SPA (Simple Plugin API) is an extensible API to implement all kinds of plugins.

GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components.
